Seeing the future

Many years ago, when I was about 21, I picked up a hitch hiker. We had been driving about 25 minutes and begun to get to know each other when he became agitated. I asked him what was wrong, and he explained that he could see crashed airplane debris all around us. He explained that he had experienced this sort of thing before and it was a prediction of the future, which he experienced from time to time and that they invariably came true and they upset him. I got rid of this nutter about 20 minutes later and forgot about him. Five years later the place where this stretch of dual carriage-way became vary famous, as it was called Lockerbie. I am a professional engineer and a research scientist type of person. When I explain this to other scientists they dismiss this as impossible nonsense and that independent verification is required, but i am the independent witness aren't I? and no he didn't have a turban
